SEOUL South Korea's environment ministry said on Monday it will decide later this month whether to revoke the certification of 32 vehicle models made by Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE) after prosecutors accused the German carmaker of fabricating documents on emissions and noise-level tests.

If the ministry decides to revoke the certification of the affected models from Volkswagen and its Audi and Bentley units, they will be suspended from sale in the country, the ministry said in a statement.
